Q: 4. How to present 4 different ppt slides in a 4 monitor video wall?

A: This switcher can be configured in a few different ways. In picture-in-picture mode this switcher will allow you to have 4 different signals on 4 different monitors. So you could connect 4 computers, assign each to a screen and display 4 different PowerPoint slides that way. You can also set this as a 2x2 Video Wall. That means you would have a signal from one source spread out over the 4 screens. PowerPoint will not allow you to show 4 slides at a time, so you would need to create a custom slide or image that has 4 slides on it and make sure you have it appropriately sized and positioned on the screen.

Q: 5. Will the shinybow SB-5688K 8x8 HDMI matrix switch work with 1080i at 59.94 fps? We have a Blackmagic switcher and we have to run everything at that framerate. So I need any new equipment to do the same.

A: This may work for your needs, however it is really designed as more of an A/V Matrix Switcher and not for use in Broadcast Applications. You would be better off looking at the Blackmagic Design Smart Videohub CleanSwitch 12 x 12, B&H # BLSVHCS1212. It has SDI connections, which most Blackmagic Switchers have as well. You might just need some basic HDMI to SDI converters if you have cameras with HDMI outputs, B&H # BLMCHDMISDI.https://bhpho.to/2oZY50Ohttps://bhpho.to/2bUtZ8I
